DENVER — When your son says he wants to be a tornado for Halloween, you really have to get creative.

Former Denver7 Anchor Christine Chang certainly did, after repurposing a spiraling, collapsible laundry basket into a vortex of mesh and debris.

Over the years, she has evolved into a costume connoisseur, annually fashioning costumes for herself, her husband, and her son, Rylan. They have transformed into Buzz and Woody, Lightning McQueen and racecar drivers, and even a tennis ball and tennis players.

Before Ry was even born, she created a costume with fingers "sticking through" her baby bump — one finger holding a small, pumpkin-shaped candy basket.
